Catalogue Essay
Conch pearls are natural, non-nacreous pearls which have a surface that is often compared to porcelain. The most sought-after varieties are those of pink and orange hues. Furthermore, those with a distinct ‘flame’ pattern are considered the most valuable. This conch pearl displays an even and attractive pink colour, visible flame, and most importantly, a very desirable round shape, which is rarely seen in a natural pearl.
